weapon range 1H on horse

Hey everybody,

I am wondering if there is a difference between right/left swing, overhead and stab on a horse.

I know there is on foot: right swing and stab have more range than left swing and overhead, is the same true on a horse?

I believe it should be exactly the same on horse (factoring in the angle is different since you're up higher).

thrust on horseback is VERY weird and can extend well past where you think it would reach

I think the right swing is a little longer, and the stab a lot longer (it's more useful even though looking very wonky anyway)

Yeah thrust used to give like +60 length on 1h's...not sure if that's still the case.  It does look very wonky on horseback to stab, but it's very useful.  Right swing is longer than left swing, but a lot shorter than stab.  Overhead would be avoided at all costs IMO.

From your own perspective on a horse, it doesnt look like stab give instane reach, or even more than a right swing so not sure on that.
Although I have to mention that it's hard to actually test it on your own.
